What a wonderful experience getting our newest family member. We visited the Always Adopt event to add to our family and we found Buttercup (now Princess Buttercup :)). The rescue workers are warm, caring and helpful -- more than willing to work hard to help find a perfect match between dog and family. We did not bring our dog to the event because we were not sure what to expect. But one of the staff drove all the way out to our house so Moose could meet Buttercup. He was very knowledgeable about dog behavior, was very good about understanding the dogs interaction, and facilitated a great introduction. He also let us know what we could expect during the transition and assured us that Rhode Home Rescue would be there to help in anyway we might need. If you are looking for a new family member I would highly recommend Rhode Home Rescue.
We went to the adoption event and filled out the application on the way there. We were approved for the dog we wanted, signed some paperwork and took him home that day! We have two young children and were trying to find a shelter that would adopt a small dog to us, and weren’t having much luck even though our kids are very dog savvy. RHR met our kids, let us hold the dog, did not pressure us one way or the other, and despite there being 20 or so dogs there and a bunch of families, they kept it organized, fluid and quick. We are thrilled with our new family member. You guys, these people VOLUNTEER to do this... to meet trucks of dogs at all hours of the night to take them home to foster. Most of the time multiple dogs to one foster, dogs that haven’t had it very easy and are scared and dirty and who most likely wouldn’t have lived through the shelter they were pulled from. This is grueling, heart wrenching, valuable work. Please adopt. Validate this work and give these poor things a warm bed and a full bowl of food.
Met an adoptable dog on a Wednesday when she was with her current Foster. Contacted Rhode Home Rescue and immediately applied for adoption. Here I am Saturday night with a little nugget. Quick, professional and charismatic. Everyone I dealt with that was part of Rhode Home Rescue was delightful. There was a dog adoption event (where we actually got to take her home) this morning from 11-2. It was about 95 degrees out and humid. These volunteers were giving every ounce of love and energy they had to potential parents and the dogs. It was pretty awesome. I am thankful for a pleasant experience from beginning to end.
Rhode Home Rescue is a top notch Pet Adoption Agency. We recently adopted a beautiful Black Female Pomeranian, originally named Raven, now called Lily. We were very fortunate to have been contacted by our wonderful RHR Volunteers Julie P. and Raven's/Lily's foster mom, Shelli-Rose, who both made us feel so welcomed and appreciated. We are very lucky to have Lily in our home with our other Pomeranians Rocky II and Randy. furever grateful, Suzanne and Paul Walker
I attended the super dog adoption event in June and had fallen in love with Roxie prior to the event while researching available dogs online. I completed the pre approval paperwork online. Everyone at Rhode Home was very helpful in making this adoption experience pleasant and timely. This is not my first adoption but was my first from this organization. Roxie was rescued from a high kill shelter in the south and transported to RI for another chance at life. We've been helping her learn how to dog and play with her other furry siblings. I don't even like to think about what would have happened if they hadn't rescued her. Thanks for saving these babies and especially our new baby!
